Weight doesn’t always tell the whole story

If losing weight feels harder than it used to, you’re not alone. Hormones, thyroid function, metabolism, stress levels, sleep, and even medications can all play a major role in how your weight changes over time.

When weight shifts, it’s often your body sending a signal. A primary care provider can help you understand what’s going on and explore options that make sense for you.

Weight isn’t just about willpower

Many people eat well and stay active but still struggle to lose weight. Your body’s internal systems play a major role, and a doctor can help you understand what’s happening and talk through proven weight-loss options, including:

  • Prescription medications like GLP-1 therapies
  • Metabolic or hormone-related treatments
  • Adjusting medications that may affect weight
  • Bariatric surgery evaluations
